The placement of Mercury in Cancer indicates you have a need for those functions symbolized by Mercury to operate on the emotional level. Much of the behavior and many of the personality characteristics associated with Mercury in Cancer are a result of the basic emotionality of the mental functions. Mercury is generally challenged somewhat by its placement in Cancer. However, as symbolized by the natural sextile between Cancer and Mercury-ruled Virgo, there are very positive aspects of this placement that can be realized.

Cancer is the Cardinal Water sign. Most of the time, the active watery nature of Cancer symbolically drowns and dampens the changeable airy nature of Mercury, forcing the Mercury-associated functions to act through an unaccustomed element. This can produce a major amount of stress if the mental functions do not adapt to the emotional energy field represented by Cancer. However, if there is attunement, then the combination can become very powerful and positive, as you now have become “bi-lingual” as it were, able to unite and balance the Yin of the mental with the Yang of the emotional.

불안정성

Having Mercury in Cancer, if you are insecure as a person, you are likely to feel unsure of your mental nature and, because of this, you reject the emotional attunement toward which your mental state leans. Your intellect feels overwhelmed with irrationality and you cannot deal with this. The ego subconsciously perceives its vulnerability in allowing the mind to function in a state in which the “irrational” (i.e., the ego’s perception of the unconscious Reality) may break through and threaten the integrity of the ego. Your response to this mental confusion is to withdraw mentally from active engagement. However, because you cannot escape the nature of your mental functions, you tend to communicate in an emotionally reactive manner whenever you are mentally confronted with “the irrational.”

Mercury in the 10th House:

Mercury in the 10th House suggests that you have a practical bent to your mental and communicating functions and also that you are mentally goal-oriented. You are not likely to dwell overly long on analysis. Instead, you will evaluate the data and reach a decision that can help you proceed toward your goal. The purpose of thought and communication, in your mind, is to get things done.

As an individual with Mercury in the 10th House, from your point of view, thought, to be worth engaging in, should be useful and constructive. The mind should have a goal and then proceed forward to actualize that goal. Your mental energies are likely to be bent on accomplishment.

If there is a danger associated with Mercury in the 10th House, it is that, in your eagerness to harness yourself to achieve success for yourself, you fail to deliberate sufficiently or to take seriously the nuances or logical contradictions that your mind brings to light (or that others communicate to you). To the extent that your mind is goal-focused and disciplined, it is likely to be strong, though not necessarily intellectual. With Mercury in the 10th House, if success eludes you, however, you may lose mental confidence. You will generally look for success in everyday accomplishments, however, and this should keep your mind positive and always occupied with something to achieve.

불안정성

Having Mercury in the 10th House, if you do not really believe in yourself and your own capabilities, you will always be thinking and worrying about success and how you will accomplish this or that. You will be mentally confronted by the possibility of your own failure and you mentally react to this possibility, always with the subconscious aim of protecting your ego from humiliation. You may lower your expectations so that if you fail, the failure will not seem so catastrophic or will seem fated and beyond your control. In fact, in your worry and anxiety over failure, you are likely to think of scapegoats to blame for your failure to accomplish your goals.

Alternatively, with Mercury in the 10th House, you may seek to overcompensate. Your worry and your fears may drive you mentally to accomplish your objectives at any cost. Outwardly, you may appear to be successful and brilliant, but inwardly, you doubt yourself and your capabilities and always must prove your intelligence to yourself and others.

Intellect’s Focus

With Mercury in the 10th House, your intellect may be focused on your career. Your intellect is also likely to be focused on achieving your goals and accomplishing your objectives. The 10th House placement of Mercury also suggests that you may have a career in which your intellectual talents are used. You are more likely than most to be engaged in a mental profession. You may think about or analyze your career more than others.  You are also more likely to mentally plan the steps you will take in order to achieve your goals and objectives.
